Removing
the
blade
server
from
the
BladeCenter
unit
Attention:
v
To
maintain
proper
system
cooling,
do
not
operate
the
BladeCenter
unit
for
more
than
1
minute
without
a
blade
server
or
filler
blades
installed
in
each
blade
bay.
v
Note
the
number
of
the
bay
that
contains
the
blade
server
before
you
remove
it.
You
must
reinstall
the
blade
server
in
the
same
bay
from
which
it
was
removed.
Reinstalling
a
blade
server
into
a
different
bay
than
the
one
from
which
it
was
removed
could
have
unexpected
consequences,
such
as
incorrect
reconfiguration
of
the
blade
server.
Some
blade
server
configuration
information
and
update
options
are
established
according
to
bay
number.
If
you
reinstall
the
blade
server
into
a
different
bay,
you
might
have
to
reconfigure
the
blade
server.
Removing
the
blade
server
The
blade
server
is
a
hot-swappable
device,
and
the
blade
bays
in
the
BladeCenter
unit
are
hot-swappable
bays.
Therefore,
you
can
install
or
remove
the
blade
server
without
removing
power
from
the
BladeCenter
unit.
However,
you
must
turn
off
the
blade
server
before
removing
it
from
the
BladeCenter
unit.
Complete
the
following
steps
to
remove
the
blade
server:
1.
Read
the
safety
information
beginning
on
page
vii
and
“Installation
guidelines”
on
page
29.
2.
If
the
blade
server
is
operating,
the
power
on
LED
is
lit
continuously
(steady).
Before
you
remove
a
blade
server
from
the
BladeCenter
unit,
you
must
shut
down
the
operating
system
on
it
by
typing
the
shutdown
-h
now
command
or
choosing
the
shut
down
option
from
your
GUI.
See
“Turning
off
the
blade
server”
on
page
4
for
details.
You
do
not
have
to
shut
down
the
BladeCenter
unit
itself.
3.
Open
the
two
release
levers
as
shown
in
the
illustration.
The
blade
server
moves
out
of
the
bay
approximately
0.6
cm
(0.25
inch).
4.
Pull
the
blade
server
out
of
the
bay.
5.
Place
either
a
filler
blade
or
a
new
blade
server
in
the
bay
within
1
minute.
